Genuinely, thank you very much for uploading every day. Alpharad Gold is exactly what I’ve needed with my god awful start of 2023. I’ve been a fan of the channel since hat in time, and the content has always made me laugh and smile. You’ve kept up the same content and humor ever since (minus the slight change from plus to deluxe), and now I get to see it every day and crack a smile and a good laugh every day. Jo being toxic in chess and hearing about Milf Magnet Jacob are the highlights of my day, and with the new consistency I always have something to look forward to. Thank you very much and I’m looking forward to a good year of Gold.

Y'all should play Shotgun King: The Final Checkmate. It's a chess based top down roguelike shooter where you play as the Black king with a shotgun versus the White army and each round you select one of two random buffs for yourself, but each option is paired with a buff for the White army. It's sick, and it has a brief story at the beginning of each game that Jo can skip

[@goldenghost23]

Even more reasons why you should play Spiderman Web of shadows: So theres this really cool physics bug? Where you mash the jump button against a wall and if you mash fast enough spiderman slides on his knees and skyrockets super fast up any wall into the sky.

[@O-01-04]

I really hope that eventually, Jopharad and Al try out PS2 classics such as Magic Pengel and Graffiti Kingdom. Literally nobody seems to know about those games existences, which is a shame considering they're a fucking rabbit hole of traits that you'd think would make it more well known. (Such as Studio Ghibli's involvement in Magic Pengel, ZUN working on Graffiti Kingdom's music, or hell even the fact Charles Martinet voices one of the villains in the story!) Not to mention its unique gameplay of being able to actually physically draw the monsters you play the game as, or use in battle (depending on the game), and its """"top notch"""" voice acting.

[@lylelylecrocodile2538]
